xp will run fine on older pc. if you can run a crucial memory advisior scan on his pc see if it take two or four gig of standard ddr-2 ram.
it be a 40.00 or so upgrade but he get his money worth on the amount of apps he can run at the same time on his old rig.
myself for your dad I would get an h61 motherboard and a g line cpu and 8g of ram and windows 7. or look for back friday deals. the new pc will be so snappy he be happy.
